Zhao Hao entered the "confidential room" and looked at him. He saw Zhao Xu sitting in the middle. He quickly stepped forward. Perhaps he was in poor health. His crutch shook and he almost fell head-on.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he paused before stepping forward, holding him in a hurry, and said with concern: "Uncle Emperor, your illness has not been cured yet. There is nothing important to do, why should I hurry up? Come and bring a stool for Uncle Emperor. Uncle Emperor, slow down."

Zhao Hao was a little panting, raised his pale face and said, "Thank you. Your Majesty. This disease must have delayed the major affairs of the government. I am uneasy and always want to apologize to the government. If I can leave, I will come immediately..."

Zhao Xu held him, sat down on the stool, stood in front of him, watching Zhao Hao's weak improvement, and said with emotion: "The emperor's uncle is his family, and he can think about me. Unlike those high-ranking officials and nobles outside who shouted loyalty to the emperor and the country, but they kept stumbled on me. They were happy to be happy if they wanted me to throw a dog and eat shit..."

Zhao Hao listened and was about to stand up, but Zhao Xu pressed him back with one hand. He had to laugh and said, "The officials, the officials are still considerate of the officials. The abilities of Zhang Xianggong, Cai Xianggong and others are obvious to all. When the government and the people look at each other, they will definitely be able to solve the problems of the officials..."

Zhao Xu took a few steps back, sat down on his chair, nodded, looked at Zhao Hao, and said with a smile: "Uncle the Emperor said the same thing, but there are still too few people who can use it. The 'Dengzhou Ayun Case' has been making trouble since the beginning of his father's ascension to the throne, and has been endless, which really makes me angry. I just thought that this Dali Temple must be put in the hands of my family. First, it is to rest assured, and secondly, it is to curb the party struggles. After thinking about it, I thought of the Emperor, who did not disappoint me and understood me wholeheartedly..."

Zhao Hao's pale face suddenly looked panicked, and stood up tremblingly, and said anxiously: "I dare not. I am mediocre and cannot bear the great responsibility..."

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "Don't be humble, sit down quickly, tangerine peel, show the tea for the emperor."

Zhao Hao's mouth moved, he wanted to speak but stopped, so he slowly sat back.

When Tangerine Pi brought tea, he quickly put down his crutches and followed with both hands: "Thank you, Grand Official."

Chen Pi was stunned. The King of Yan was the first to call him the high-ranking official in the palace.

He bowed a little and quietly retreated.

Zhao Xu looked at it, narrowed his eyes, and then smiled and said, "Uncle Emperor, Dali Temple is very important to me. The new yamen of Dali Temple is still under construction. The emperor is in good health. In a few days, I will go for a walk on my behalf. When the emperor is in good health, I will issue an edict to retrieve the "Dengzhou Ayun Case" and completely settle the case. By the way, Uncle Emperor, do you think that Sima Guang and others should be held accountable after turning over the case decided by his father?"

Zhao Hao held the teacup, as if Zhao Xu was talking too much, he couldn't digest it for a while, and hesitated for a long time. He looked at Zhao Xu, opened his mouth and said nothing.

Zhao Xu picked up the teacup and smiled and said, "Uncle Emperor, you and I are my own family, nothing is beyond words."

Zhao Hao looked relieved and said, "That thing is actually the mother's decision."

As soon as this sentence came out, the room suddenly became quiet, and even the next door became quiet.

Tangerine peel looked a little strange. Zhao Hao's words seemed to be fine, but something was wrong.

Zhao Xu paused his hands, who was about to drink tea, and then continued to drink tea slowly.

Zhao Hao looked at the two houses in front of him and whispered in a low voice: "Official family, I suggest that the case will be left unresolved and asked the Ayun family to withdraw the case, give some money, and send it away."

Zhao Xu put down the teacup, looked at Zhao Hao quietly, smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle Emperor, these things are all decided by Sima Guang and others without authorization, and have nothing to do with grandmother."

Zhao Hao was stunned and immediately said: "What the official said is."

Zhao Xu looked at Zhao Hao with a struggle look and said with a smile: "Uncle Emperor can do it, I will do it."

Zhao Hao's expression changed and suddenly said, "Official family, I have to ask my mother for this matter. My mother is very worried about my illness and can't sleep day and night. If I leave the palace with illness, she will be in a state of peace."

Zhao Xu raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Hao deeply, put down his teacup, without saying anything.

Tangerine could hear clearly and bowed and stood.

When Zhao Hao saw this, he stood up with a panic look on his face and said, "I will go back and ask my mother for advice."

Zhao Xu did not stop him, and watched him leave the confidential room, and said with a strange look on his face: "Danime, have you noticed that something seems to be wrong with my uncle?"

Chenpi also felt the same way, thought for a while, and said, "Maybe, I don't want to go to Dali Temple."

Zhao Xu thought, and Yu Guang glanced at the room on his left and said, "Did you remember it?"

A civil servant quickly took a copy of the official book and said, "Official family, remember it."

Zhao Xu took it over and flipped it out. Seeing that the difference was not too far, he handed it over and said, "This is the first lesson in the analysis room. Analyze the conversation between me and the emperor's uncle and analyze the content hidden in these words of the emperor."

"Abide by the order." The clerk responded, holding the public book and quickly turned to the analysis room.

Zhao Xu sat on the chair, looked outside, thinking about Zhao Hao's words just now, and suddenly there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. He took another sip of tea before returning to Chuigong Hall to continue handling political affairs.

Zhao Hao returned to Cining Hall and met Meiren Meng coming out from inside.

Zhao Hao's eyes flashed slightly, and he saluted tremblingly: "I've seen the Empress."

When Meiren Meng saw Zhao Hao, she bowed and said, "I have met the emperor's uncle."

Zhao Hao's eyes flashed, and without saying much, he walked quickly inside.

Meiren Meng never stopped and nodded and turned back to Renming Palace after nodding.

As soon as Meiren Meng sat down, a palace maid came in with a plate and whispered: "Empress, it's time to arrange to serve tonight."

Zhao Xu has always been very casual about serving the harem, and he has almost never taken the initiative to recruit anyone unless he is particularly needed.

Meiren Meng looked at the names on the plate, pursed her lips and said, "Meiren Liu."

The palace maid looked at Meng Meiren and whispered: "Empress, the official family has only recruited two or three times to serve him in bed for a few days. Empress..."

Her words are self-evident. Zhao Xu has no children yet. In the harem, the mother is noble by her son, and the child is extremely important!

Meiren Meng looked motionless and said, "Go."

The palace maid didn't say anything more and turned around and went out with a plate in response.

At this time, Gyeongju was full of pre-war tension.

Zhang Qi used Huanqing Road strategy to manage the fifth northern route, and led various strategies, general managers, Jiedu, etc. The Privy Council allocated various official positions in the fifth route, and almost all the people of the "old party" were replaced.

Sun Lu followed Wang Anli as the governor of Hedong Road, Wang Anli was Wang Anshi's right younger brother, and Wang Wenyu was the governor of Xihe Road.

Zhe Keshi, Yao Xiong, Zhong Fu, Zhong Pu, Zhong Shidao, and Zhong Shizhong were all in the hall.

In the hall, a group of people were giving advice, and Zhang Yue was making arrangements for various groups and dispatching troops.

Almost all the people in the palace were excited and excited to fight, and they were just about to be ready to go.

Wang Anli, who had been staying in Huanqing Road, was uneasy when he saw it and said, "The reason why the Xia people suddenly gathered so many troops is because our dynasty is unstable. We should now defend first, wait for Kaifeng to stabilize before we can plan for the Northern Expedition..."

This sentence is a bad atmosphere.

Everyone was stunned and looked at him. This was the first time that someone had opposed the Northern Expedition.

Wang Anli's official position is not high, but his identity is special - Wang Anshi's youngest brother.

Wang Anshi is the spiritual leader of the reformist school, so he is naturally "polite to Wang Anli."

The eyes of a group of people slowly turned to Zhang Shi. Zhang Shi held the imperial edict and gold medal and led the five northern routes. He had the right to take action first and then report, and only he could suppress Wang Anli.

Zhang Feng's hair and hair were all white. He looked at the map with his head down, and his head did not raise his head. His tone was as decisive as the railway: "Because of this, our dynasty cannot be timid. This battle must be won, and it is a great victory! Wang Jingluo, at this time, we should unite as one, and not speak randomly to shake the morale of the army!"

Wang Anli looked moved, glanced at the unkind eyes of everyone, sighed in his heart, raised his hand and said, "Yes."

Zhang Qi looked at the map and said, "The Xia people have divided the five routes, and we also need to focus on it..."

The crowd listened with a solemn expression and listened carefully to the order.

Wang Anli looked at him and his heart became heavier.

The current situation is very similar to the fourth year of Yuanfeng. At that time, the Xia people were also the emperor and the empress who fought for power, and there were constant internal strife. The court believed that it was a good opportunity, so it mobilized an army of 600,000 to attack Xia in five directions, and eventually it was a great defeat!

Now, the situation changes, the Emperor and Empress of the Song Dynasty are fighting endlessly, and internal strife is one after another, and the Xia people come with their army.

Not only did they not defend, they actually took the initiative to attack!

If the Xia people were so easy to fight, how could the five armies of the Yuanfeng period fail?

No one paid attention to what Wang Anli thought. Almost all the commanders of the Five Road Front Army wanted to fight, and no one wanted to continue the rebellion and peace of mind when they were "old party" and persisted.

More than 200,000 troops were gathered in the fifth northern route, with banners waving and morale as if it were rainbows!

At this time, the Xixia army was not far from the border.

...

At this moment, with the continuous preparations for war in Kaifeng City, the atmosphere of war has become stronger and stronger, but there are still endless voices about whether to fight or to be harmonious. From time to time, people write letters to analyze the pros and cons, demand that the court stop the war and negotiate with Xixia.

The Ministry of Revenue, Privy Council, and the Ministry of War went to the Political Affairs Hall, the Green Tile House, and the Secret Room. They were getting busy day by day and no longer had time to pay attention to the noise of the government and the country.

In the Chuigong Hall, there are more and more news about the North Fifth Road.

Xixia obviously wanted to take advantage of the civil strife in the Song Dynasty!

Zhao Xu's workload increased rapidly than before, and it did not end until late at night.

With a lamp in the Chuigong Hall, Zhao Xu buried his head in examining and reviewing the memorial.

Chenpi walked over quietly and whispered: "Official family, Meiren Liu is here."

Zhao Xu was just watching and said casually: "Yes."

Tangerine peel quietly retreated, and soon, the young woman wearing a light shirt and thin silk walked in with a bowl.

Zhao Xu heard the sound and looked up.

I saw that beautiful Liu's skin was as beautiful as a flower. Her face, which had just been bathed, was tender and blushed. She pursed her lips, and her melon-shaped face was smiling slightly, and she was gentle and elegant.
